Evaluation Board - MC33810EK, Automotive Engine Control IC
The KIT33810EKEVB evaluation board is an easy-to-use circuit board that allows the user to exercise all the functions of the MC33810 Automotive Engine Control IC.
There are two ways to communicate with the evaluation board:
- A PC communicates with the evaluation board through a Freedom SPI dongle (FSD), connected to the PC’s USB port or
- The microcontroller on the FRDM-KL25Z communicates with the evaluation board via microcontroller code.
The NXP SPIGen (version 7.0.1 or higher) program provides the user interface to the MC33810 SPI port and allows the user to send commands to the IC and receive statuses from the IC.
The KIT33810EKEVB evaluation board features the MC33810EK Automotive Engine Control IC, which is an eight channel output driver IC intended for automotive engine control applications. The integrated circuit (IC) consists of four integrated low side drivers and four low side gate pre-drivers. The low side drivers are suitable for driving fuel injectors, solenoids, lamps, and relays. The four gate pre-drivers can function either as ignition IGBT gate pre-drivers or as general purpose MOSFET gate pre-drivers. The PCB contains a board to FRDM-KL25Z connector, which allows the FRDM-KL25Z to act as either a FSD or simply as an access to the KL25Z microcontroller.
